'Donkey Kong' Recreated With LEGO Bricks
Dan Kressin recently built a LEGO recreation of Nintendo's classic 8-bit title 'Donkey Kong' using a LEGO Mindstorms system (a collection of programmable LEGO bricks, motors and sensors). While you can't actually play the game (maybe a feature in the next version?), you can sit back and relive some of your childhood memories of sitting in front of the tube, tapping away at your Nintendo Entertainment System. Though we spent thousands of hours of our childhood playing with LEGO blocks, we've never seen a LEGO creation like this -- Donkey Kong throws plastic barrels, Mario jumps, and yes, even the 'Donkey Kong' theme song plays.
Need to know how this thing was actually put together? Check out Kressin's Web site, and you'll find a video of the 'guts' of the contraption after the break. [From: LEGO Donkey Kong via: Unplggd]
